YOU MIGHT THINK HE’S SLOW…

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise,as some understand slowness. Instead He is patiently with you,not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance”
~2Peter3:9
Some things we desire from Him and we think He is slow in answering us has so many underlying reasons that we do not know and might not be able to fathom, because His ways are soooooooooooooooooo higher than ours and what our human heads can comprehend.
Some things if given to us, no matter how good and genuine or right we think it is, can lead to our destruction if given to us now and because He is not willing for anyone to perish by a gift, He delays it till He considers it the right time!
Now, the question on the minds of Christians today might be how do I know what to fight for in prayer and what to let go (if God does not really want me to have it now)?
Well, this answer cannot be separated from our personal fellowship and communion with the Holy Ghost. He gives you a witness in your spirit to go ahead and fight or He tells you to rejoice because that desire will surely come at His own time because He makes all things beautiful in His time.
Take a look at your desires now. Are they in line with what God has written down?
Well, its Gods desire for us to live good and comfortable lives, be promoted in our careers,enjoy a good marriage, have children, be healthy and allllll good things of life.
However, we must come to realise that the moment a man does not have any challenge or what He’s looking forward to access, he might come to a false thinking that he does not need God.
There is no single person on earth without a challenge (including our Bishops and Pastors)
Challenges vary according to your level and walk with God per time.
Challenges are not meant to swallow us but to perform some works in us which mainly includes to increase our level of faith and trust for him in the face of contrary situations. He also takes us through some challenges because we have a ministry to people in that area. But how can we deliver if we have not really felt the same thing. A message is more powerful and delivered with passion if you have a first hand experience. God uses us as a seed for the harvest in that particular area of challenge.
You are that seed that will bring the harvest for many people in that same situation.
It all depends on the way you see it.
How can you explain a woman that God tells exactly the number of years He wants her to wait before giving her a child? She’s someone well known to me. She simply relaxed even when tongues were wagging and people were asking all manner of questions.
And did it happen when God told her it would??? Yes! It happened exactly that same year!
People! God is not a wicked God and He’s too faithful to fail.
He does it when He will do it and its all in our interest.
The best we can do is to continually draw closer to him in prayer believing that at the appointed time, He will deliver.
Having done all your part…. STAND!!!!
Friends, STAND!!!
Maintain your joy,
Let no devil steal it!
Tell him you know better.
Don’t waste your years in depression.
There’s still sooooooooooooo much more to live for, beyond that desire!
Hold on to the horns of the altar!
He will surprise us all and even “if not….” He is God and has the best in mind.
